At home, usually there are a few things that are paid by parents, but here i had to do it by myself.
I still live with my parents, so i dont have to pay any rent,which was the most expensive, although it was a very good residence.

We get used to cook in the dormitory all together. I did not use telephone, my family and friends were calling me. I was sharing my home with another exchange student so its quite affordable. I was using bicycle to go everywhere.

You generally spend more because you are aware that you only here for a restricted time so there is more of a drive to experience all that Rotterdam has to offer.
